Removing a Host Adapter

Removing a host adapter can be as simple as physically removing
it from the slot when your computer is shut down. See the
documentation for your host adapter for more information.
Windows starts and functions properly in this configuration.
Note: Windows Setup does not delete the device driver from
your system disk; it only updates Windows software
configuration information so that the device driver is no
longer loaded during system startup.

Swapping a Host Adapter

Swapping a SCSI host adapter for another SCSI host adapter is
similar to the procedure for adding a host adapter. The important
distinction is that you add the new SCSI adapter into the system
first, before removing the old adapter.
Note: If you do not install the new host adapter first, it may
result in a Windows boot failure. If the operating system fails
to start, remove the new host adapter and replace the original.
To swap adapters:
1 Turn off your computer.
Warning: Turn the power to the computer off, and
disconnect the power cord.
2 Discharge any static electricity build-up before handling the
SCSI adapter by touching a grounded metal object.
